Does anyone know if the caps that Houser uses on it's a-arm pivots will fit on stock arms? Of course, a new inner race/sleeve would be needed (or maybe use the Houser one, as well), but if the caps would seal out the wilderness, we'd be miles ahead of the current design.

Seems to me that the tubing Houser uses at the mount is bigger diameter than the factory size and it won't work. Just double checking.

It is a larger diameter

I was thinking they were. I bet some of the Japper's are the same size, though. That would beat the heck out of what we've got.

Anyone care to take a minute to measure the OD of the pivot tube of the A-arm? Post up what will or won't work. Of course, it needs to be a quad that has the caps with seal on the a-arms.

I can measure the stock arms tonight.

On the Housers?

No, measure the Jappers to see if we can come up with a retrofit for our stock arms.
